Best Hair Salon in Medfield, MA | Kimberly Messing Hair Design

Ever had a colorist actually fix what a previous salon got wrong, instead of just layering another treatment over it? That's the specialty this salon built its reputation on. Kimberly Messing Hair Design has spent 38-plus years at 533 Washington Street in Braintree, and Medfield clients regularly make the trip specifically for the kind of color correction and precision work that a quiet, quick-service salon can't offer. Nine specialists, one board-certified colorist at the helm, and a standard that hasn't slipped since 1986.

38+ Years on Washington Street | Nine Specialists | A Short Drive From Medfield

Janet Fixes What Other Salons Got Wrong. That's the Whole Point of This Team.

Janet Layden built her entire career around color correction, the discipline that comes into play when a box-dye job goes sideways, when highlights come out patchy, or when years of root touch-ups leave visible banding. It's demanding, technical work, and it's exactly the kind of specialty that defines how this salon operates: every stylist here picked one lane and went deep in it, rather than trying to be everything to everyone.

That structure comes straight from owner Kim Messing, who opened the salon in 1986 and has spent nearly four decades building a team around real expertise instead of general competence. Kim is a board-certified colorist herself, a credential fewer than 5% of working stylists ever complete, and she's also Hot Heads certified for tape-in extensions. She trains regularly with Goldwell, Redken, Keratin Complex, and Olaplex, and every stylist on this floor has trained under her or alongside her.

Nearly four decades in the same location means the salon has grown alongside its client base. The retail wall has expanded from a small display to more than 200 products, the team has grown to nine specialists, and the address and ownership have stayed exactly the same the whole time. Some Medfield clients have been coming since before Janet ever specialized in correction work, and they've watched the whole operation grow more specialized right along with their own hair needs.

Why Medfield Clients Choose Us Over Something Closer to Home

A Specialist for Every Concern, Not Just Every Chair

Instead of a rotating cast of generalists, this salon runs on nine distinct specialties. Janet handles correction. Maureen handles foiling and balayage. Laura handles blonding. You're matched to whoever actually solves your specific problem.

A Team Trained to the Same Standard

Every stylist here trained under Kim or alongside her, which means the level of care doesn't drop depending on which chair you sit in. That consistency matters most for clients coming in for something technical like a correction, where a stylist's judgment under pressure makes the difference between a fix and a fresh mistake.

An Operation That Weighs Its Own Impact

Kim runs the business with real attention to its environmental footprint, a consideration built into daily choices, not just marketing language.

Consultations Built for an Honest Conversation

Every visit opens with a real discussion about what your hair can handle, not a rushed scan before the chair. That pace is a big part of why clients from outside Braintree make it a regular stop.

Product Recommendations With an Actual Explanation

Nothing here gets recommended just because it's sitting on the shelf. Every product suggestion comes with a real explanation of why it fits your specific hair and how to use it correctly, which matters most for clients coming off a color correction who need a very specific home-care routine to protect the work.

Services at Kimberly Messing Hair Design

Every service is handled by a specialist in that exact discipline, with a real conversation up front about your goals and your hair's history.

Hair Cut

A cut starts with a conversation about your routine and how you style at home, and about anything in your hair's chemical history that might affect how it responds to scissors versus a razor. The menu:

Barber's Cut Clean, low-maintenance, sharp.

Kid's Cut Patient, kid-friendly haircuts.

Haircut (Short) Bold and easy to maintain.

Haircut (Medium) Shape with versatility.

Haircut (Long) Shaping that protects length.

Haircut (Extra-Long) Preserves length while cleaning up ends.

Shampoo and Cut A refresh that's easier to manage.

Shampoo, Cut, and Blow-dry Styled and ready to go.

Shampoo and Blow-dry Smooth and frizz-free without home heat tools.

Perm Lasting texture and volume.

View Full Hair Cut Menu

Hair Color

Formulas are built around your skin tone, your hair's chemical history, and New England's seasonal swings, not a fixed recipe off a chart. Anyone with a long or complicated color history gets a more detailed strand test before a full service, since that's often what separates a smooth appointment from an unpleasant surprise. The menu:

Single Process Color Rich, even color with depth.

Double Process Color Lift and tone for a bigger transformation.

Partial Foil Dimension exactly where it's wanted.

Custom Foil Targeted brightness with intention.

Full Foil Bold, multi-dimensional color.

Balayage Hand-painted color that grows out softly. One of the salon's most requested services.

Color Balance Correction for faded or uneven tone.

Up-Do Long-lasting styling for events.

Add Flat Iron A sleek, polished finish.

Add Curl Soft waves or definition, added on.

What It's Actually Like to Visit Us From Medfield

A Manageable Trip Across the Region

The salon sits at 533 Washington Street in Braintree, a short drive from our Medfield studio for clients heading toward the South Shore. Free parking and evening hours make the trip easy to fit into an existing schedule.

Quiet Residential Towns Have the Same Hair Chemistry Problems

Medfield is a quiet, residential town, and hair there deals with the same regional realities as everywhere else in eastern Massachusetts: hard water buildup, seasonal humidity swings, and winters that dry hair and dull color. None of that changes based on your zip code, and every consultation here accounts for it.

A Salon That's Stayed Put

Nearly four decades in one location means word of mouth travels well beyond Braintree, and Medfield clients often arrive after hearing about the salon from a coworker or family member first.

A Reasonable Trip for the Right Service

Nobody drives across the region for a quick trim they could get anywhere. What actually justifies the trip from Medfield is the specific, hard-to-find expertise: a genuine color correction specialist, a board-certified colorist, a curl specialist trained directly by DevaCurl. Clients weighing the drive tend to make peace with it once they realize what they're actually booking.

The Full Team Behind Your Hair

Most salons run on one or two strong stylists and a rotation of newer talent. This one is structured differently, every chair belongs to someone with real depth in a specific discipline, so a booking here matches you to the person your hair actually needs.

Janet Layden, Color Correction Specialist

Janet is who gets booked when a color has gone wrong somewhere else: box-dye disasters, botched highlights, tone that won't lift, banding built up over years of touch-ups. Color correction demands deep fluency in lift levels, fillers, toners, and bonding agents, and it's the entire focus of her career.

Her dimensional work stands on its own too, building real depth through layered tone rather than one flat shade, the kind of result people notice without being able to say exactly why it looks so good.

A typical correction consultation with Janet starts with a hard look at what's actually happened to the hair chemically, not just what color it currently looks. Underlying pigment, previous lightening, and how many separate color services have stacked on top of each other all factor into the plan, and she'll tell you upfront if the safest route means two or three shorter visits instead of one long one.

Kim Messing, Owner and Master Colorist

Kim has spent 38-plus years studying how pigment behaves on real, lived-in hair. She's one of a small number of board-certified colorists in Massachusetts, mixing formulas from scratch based on tone, porosity, water quality, and lifestyle. Her Hot Heads tape-in certification draws clients dealing with thinning or density loss, and her own color-correction skill is often what pulls clients in from outside Braintree in the first place.

She mentors the rest of the team and keeps current with Goldwell, Redken, and Keratin Complex education well past the point most owners let it lapse. Beyond her own client base, Kim is frequently the second opinion Janet consults on the most complicated correction cases, a reminder that even a highly specialized team benefits from more than one expert set of eyes on the hardest problems.

Jackie Shaughnessy, Senior Stylist and Cutting Specialist

Jackie has cut hair for 38 years, and clients book her months out for precision work that grows out cleanly for eight to ten weeks. Her specialty inside cutting is curly hair, cut dry, curl by curl, so shapes hold up once curl springs back rather than collapsing.

Maureen Lamie, Master Stylist and Foiling Specialist

Twenty-five-plus years building dimensional color, Maureen maps face shape, growth pattern, and lifestyle before the first foil goes in. Her hand-painted balayage avoids the harsh regrowth line that comes from sloppy application.

Laura Blaikie, Blonding Specialist

Laura lives in blonding specifically, not just highlights on the side. Her work is bright and dimensional, and every lightening service uses Olaplex and K18 to protect the hair's bond structure.

Alicia Hayward, DevaCurl Certified Curl Specialist

One of the few DevaCurl-certified stylists on the South Shore, Alicia cuts curl by curl, dry, after an honest conversation about pattern, routine, and what you actually want to wear.

Emma Browning, Contemporary Cuts and Vivid Color

Emma brings the freshest technique on the team, from textured shags to butterfly layers, plus vivid and fashion color using Pulp Riot formulated for longevity.

Judy, Senior Stylist and Blowout Specialist

Twenty-five-plus years of styling, and Judy is the resident blowout artist, booked ahead of weddings and galas for work that holds up under pressure.

Kat, Texture and Updo Specialist

Kat handles braids, updos, and ponytails engineered to survive a full night of dancing, and is also building a following for dimensional color work with brunettes. Clients consistently mention how genuinely warm the experience feels, even during a long, intricate updo appointment.

See our full service menu and pricing.

The Professional Products We Trust and Sell

The retail wall carries more than 200 products from 28 professional brands, every one of them something the team actually uses and stands behind.

K18: Peptide Repair Technology

K18 rebuilds the hair shaft's internal structure instead of coating over damage, used in every chemical service. Clients with bleached or processed hair who add the at-home leave-in mask see a real jump in shine within four to six washes. It's also a staple in Janet's correction work specifically, since rebuilding bond structure while adjusting tone is what keeps corrected hair from feeling brittle afterward.

Goldwell: Color and Care Foundations

A primary color line here, paired with Color Revive for fading color, Kerasilk for smoothing, and Dualsenses for daily maintenance.

Redken: Performance Styling

All Soft, Color Extend Magnetics, and Acidic Bonding Concentrate are retail mainstays for dependable everyday performance, especially for damaged-hair home care.

Keratin Complex: Smoothing Specialists

The full line supports the salon's keratin smoothing services, with sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner recommended to extend any treatment.

Olaplex: Bond Building

Used in-service and recommended as the Number 3 hair perfector between visits, with Number 4 and 5 shampoo and conditioner maintaining bond work at home.

Other Key Brands

Soma, Zenagen for thinning hair, Tri Design for styling, Living Proof for frizz control, Aluram for clean beauty, Design Me for performance styling, Amika for color care, Pureology for color-treated hair, Milk_shake for moisture, Hot Like Me for thermal protection, Revitalash for lash growth, ECRU New York for protective styling, FHI Heat for tools, Wahl for clipper work, and Jon Renau for wigs and toppers. Every purchase comes with a real explanation from your stylist, and clients recovering from a color correction in particular are usually sent home with a very specific short list rather than a generic bundle.

Our Philosophy: One Stylist, Full Attention, No Exceptions

Most salons run on volume: tight booking, double-booked color processing, several chairs per stylist. This one doesn't. Your stylist works on you and only you, from the first consultation through the final blowout.

Honest consultation is part of the deal. If a color correction needs to happen in stages instead of one sitting, you'll hear that. If a look won't work with your hair's current condition, you'll hear that too. That standard has held since 1986.

It's also why appointment slots here run longer than a typical salon visit. A color correction can take four to eight hours precisely because there's no shortcut around undoing years of prior chemical history safely, and rushing it is how hair actually breaks off instead of getting fixed.

South Shore Hair Science: Why It Behaves the Way It Does

Hair reacts to its environment, and eastern Massachusetts brings hard water, humidity swings, and rough winters regardless of which town you call home. Every consultation here builds it in from the start.

Hard Water Mineral Buildup

Local water is hard, and over time it deposits calcium, iron, and magnesium onto the hair shaft, showing up as dullness, brassiness in lightened hair, and color fading faster than it should. Specific chelating treatments and take-home products reverse it.

Humidity and Frizz Management

Summers bring enough humidity to trigger frizz even in clients who've never dealt with it before. The fix combines a cut built to work with humidity, sealing products, and sometimes a keratin smoothing service.

Winter Damage

Cold air, dry indoor heat, and hats and scarves all cause real damage over a New England winter, from breakage due to friction to static from cold air. Home care recommendations shift every fall.

Seasonal Color Strategy

Color reads differently by season. Bright blondes that feel harsh in winter can look gorgeous in summer light, and rich brunettes that feel heavy in July can feel elegant by December. Plenty of clients adjust tone twice a year.

Product Buildup From Everyday Habits

Heavy styling products that never fully rinse out, combined with daily washing that strips natural oils, gradually dull hair in a way that's easy to mistake for a bad color job when the real issue is buildup. A clarifying treatment every few weeks, paired with a lower wash frequency, usually resolves it without touching the color formula at all, which is worth ruling out before assuming a correction is needed.

What a Free Consultation Actually Covers

Every new client gets a free consultation before the first service, no charge and no obligation. It typically runs 20 to 30 minutes as a working conversation.

  • Hair history. What chemicals have touched your hair, when, and how it responded.
  • Current condition. An honest read on health, integrity, and porosity.
  • Daily routine. Wash frequency, products, styling tools, and time spent on your hair.
  • Lifestyle factors. Workouts, swimming, sun exposure, work environment, sleep.
  • Visual reference. Photos of what you want, and what you don't.
  • Realistic outcome. What's achievable in one visit versus several.
  • Cost and time. Clear numbers upfront, no surprises at checkout.
  • Maintenance plan. What it takes to keep the result looking right.

Clients routinely say the consultation alone gives them more clarity than years of appointments elsewhere. For anyone specifically weighing color correction, the consultation also includes an honest timeline: some corrections finish in one long appointment, while others need to be staged across two or three visits to protect the hair's integrity, and you'll know which category you're in before any chemical service starts.

Serving Medfield From Our Braintree Studio

Medfield is a quiet, residential community, and clients here tend to value the same things this salon was built around: real expertise, no rush, and results that hold up over time rather than a fast fix that fades in a few weeks. The trip out to Washington Street fits easily into an errand run or a dedicated afternoon, with free parking waiting when you arrive and evening hours available for anyone working a standard week.

It's a town where word of mouth still carries real weight, and plenty of Medfield clients arrive after hearing a specific, detailed recommendation from someone they trust rather than stumbling across an ad. That kind of referral tends to set realistic expectations before the first visit even happens, and it's part of why the relationship between stylist and client here often outlasts a single haircut trend or color phase.

Is the Drive From Medfield Worth It?

It's the most common question from new clients, and the honest answer is yes, for specific reasons. Plenty of salons sit closer to home. What's different here is board-certified color expertise, nine specialists instead of one or two generalists, and a model built around undivided attention per client. Retention runs high, and clients who book once tend to stay for years.

The logistics make it manageable: free parking, evening hours Tuesday through Thursday, and Saturday availability for anyone working a standard week. Plenty of clients treat the drive as built-in decompression time between a busy week and an appointment where nobody's rushing them.

What Medfield Clients Book Us for Most

Color correction leads more often than you'd expect, since it's genuinely hard to find elsewhere and Janet's whole career is built around it. Highlights, balayage, and blonding follow close behind, split between Maureen and Laura depending on the look.

Cutting draws its own crowd too: curly-haired clients specifically seek out Alicia and Jackie, while clients wanting on-trend shapes book Emma. Extensions and treatments round out the rest, with Kim's tape-in work and Jon Renau toppers serving clients navigating thinning or density loss.

Tinting and waxing add-ons are also popular alongside a color or cut appointment, since most clients prefer handling everything in one visit rather than scheduling a separate trip out from Medfield.

Perms and texture services see a smaller but steady following too, particularly from clients who've tried at-home volumizing routines without much luck and want a more lasting solution. It's a smaller category on the books, but the clients who book it tend to become repeat regulars once they see the difference a proper application makes.

Building a Relationship With Your Stylist Over Time

The value of this kind of salon compounds. The first visit sets a baseline. By the second, your stylist starts learning your hair specifically, including exactly how it responded to whatever correction or formula was used the first time. By the fifth or sixth, they understand it the way they'd understand a close friend's habits, and adjustments that used to require guesswork become second nature.

Clients who commit to one stylist for a year consistently see better results than clients who shop around. Booking your next appointment before you leave is standard practice: color clients typically return every 4-6 weeks, highlights and balayage every 8-12, cuts every 6-8, and treatments quarterly.

Detailed formula and cutting notes get kept for every client, so a stylist isn't reconstructing your history from memory at each visit. For anyone who's ever had to re-explain their hair's entire backstory at a new salon, that continuity alone is a noticeable relief.

Yes, Alicia is DevaCurl certified and Jackie also specializes in curly cutting.

What do tinting and waxing services cost?

Eyebrow Waxing starts at $20, Brow Tinting at $20, Lip and Chin Waxing at $25.

How do I book from Medfield?

Book online any time, or call 781-817-5077. Booking ahead is smart for color, extensions, and correction work.

What are the salon hours?

Tuesday and Wednesday 9-7, Thursday 9-8, Friday and Saturday 9-4, closed Sunday and Monday.

Do you work with every hair type?

Yes: fine, thick, curly, color-treated, all of it.

Is there usually a wait for Janet's correction appointments?

Sometimes, since correction work is highly specialized and in real demand. Booking two to three weeks ahead is a reasonable starting point, though a phone call is the fastest way to get an honest read on current availability.

Can I get a phone consultation before committing to the drive?

Yes, especially useful for anyone considering color correction, since a quick photo and phone conversation can help set expectations about timeline and cost before the in-person visit.

Extended FAQ: Deeper Questions

How long does color last?

Single process and root touch-ups typically need a refresh every 4-6 weeks. Highlights hold 8-12 weeks. Balayage stretches 12-16 weeks. Vivid and fashion colors fade fastest, usually 4-8 weeks.

Will color damage my hair?

Done correctly, no. Single process rarely causes damage. Lightening services are more demanding, which is why Olaplex and K18 are used in every one. Damage tends to show up in clients who bounce between salons or use box dye between professional visits, which is exactly the pattern Janet's correction work most often addresses.

How long does a color correction appointment take?

Anywhere from 4 to 8 hours, sometimes split across visits depending on how much history needs to be undone. Nothing gets rushed.

Balayage or highlights, which is right for me?

Highlights are foiled for maximum lift and a brighter, defined pattern. Balayage is hand-painted for a softer look with easier regrowth. A free consultation is the fastest way to figure out which fits.

How do I keep color from fading?

Sulfate-free shampoo, washing every 2-3 days instead of daily, a cold final rinse, heat protectant before hot tools, a UV-protective leave-in, and a monthly clarifying treatment if your water's hard.

What does a full color transformation cost?

It depends on your starting color, target color, and hair length, always quoted after a free consultation.

How do I find the right stylist?

A free consultation is the fastest way. The team matches you based on what you need, whether that's Janet for correction first or Maureen and Laura for ongoing color.

What if I don't like the result?

Say so. There's a plan for adjusting almost anything.

Can I bring someone with me?

Yes, plenty of clients book alongside a sister, mother, daughter, or friend.

Do you serve clients dealing with medical hair loss?

Yes, Kim handles Jon Renau wig and topper consultations personally, with discretion and private parking available in the back.

Gift cards?

Available in any amount, online or in-salon, and they never expire.

Payment methods?

Cash, Visa, MasterCard, Amex, Discover, debit, and gift cards.

Cancellation policy?

24 hours notice, please. Same-day cancellations and no-shows are charged 50% of the service cost.

Tipping?

Not required, always appreciated. Standard practice runs 18-22%.

Walk-ins?

The salon runs by appointment, though same-day slots occasionally open up. Call 781-817-5077 to check.

Running late?

Call ahead. Past 15 minutes, your stylist may need to shorten the service or reschedule.

Kids at appointments?

Welcome, as long as they stay seated and supervised.

Wedding day services?

Yes, with advance booking. Trials happen in-salon; day-of styling typically happens at the venue or hotel.

My hair has a lot of prior chemical history. Can you still work with it?

In almost every case, yes, though it may mean a slower, staged approach rather than one dramatic appointment. Janet's entire specialty is untangling exactly this kind of history, and a free consultation is the right place to get an honest assessment of what's realistic and how long it will take.

How do I book my first visit?

Online, or by calling 781-817-5077, ideally by phone for a first visit so you can be matched with the right specialist.
